    The Balboa, Wood-fired Wings

    Honest Review!! We came on a Thursday ~6pm and snagged the last two-seater. Quick service and nice but small atmosphere. We ordered the wings and Balboa pizza, and we brought a bottle of wine but were not given a chiller like some other tables. The complimentary bread was so rock-solid it was inedible. The wings, which we heard so much about on social media and specifically came for, just tasted like sweet bbq - nothing special. Very small and little meat, but it came with 10 wings to make up for it. The ranch was also very dill-forward for any pickle haters. The pizza had a nice crust but very sparse with the short rib - sesame crust was the only memorable part. Lastly, we were sat next to a server stand and heard servers/bussers shit talking specific tables outside and people waiting for tables. I worked in a restaurant for 3+ years and of course did the same, but never in earshot of diners - quite uncomfortable. I don't typically write negative reviews, but this place did not live up to the Tiktok hype. Fine pizza and may just have been our selection, but not worth returning in our opinion!

    Grilled chicken Caesar salad huge portion
    donna d.

    Always enjoy coming here and it never disappoints. This evening we sat on the adorable patio. Started with soft, delicious focaccia. We split a chicken Caesar salad huge portion, perfectly seasoned grilled chicken with the right amount of dressing, croutons and shaved parm cheese. We split the special chicken parm pizza. I was only able to eat one slice I was so full. Got the chocolate mousse cheesecake special to go. Great service as well. See you again next time!

    Arancini is my absolute favorite and I have to have it every time I eat here!! Yummmm!!

    This place is outstanding! The food quality is fresh delicious and always consistent! One of my favorites place for dine in or take out my favorite things to order are the Italian chop salad, Arancini, Wood fired chicken wings, chocolate chip cannoli, and cappuccino!! love love love this place

    Arancini

    Ash and Oak recently partnered with 13th Child Brewery and we went to see the updated space of the brewery. They really added a nicer updated feel and the place was fully packed. The beer was very good just like it had been before. Once we got seated at Ash and Oak, we started with the Crab Bisque , smoked peaches and ricotta, and arancini. The crab bisque was possibly the best I ever had! The arancini was excellent and the smoked peaches with ricotta was sooo good, it was a lot better than I had expected. For our entrees, we had the shrimp with corn risotto and she had the Pork belly carbonara. Everything was excellent. We shared a small Afagato for desert and that really hit the spot. We had plenty of food to take home for leftovers , so that was a huge plus. The owner Vinny was very welcoming and friendly , and if you hadn't been there yet, you must try it! It was all great! Follow them on tik tok and Vinny usually will tell you what specials they have that week.

    4 cheese pizza with sesame crust

    Great little gem in Williamstown, NJ. Open 4pm-9pm Wednesday-Saturday only. It gets packed really quick. Come early or at least an hour wait. The menu is small but everything you order will be fresh and very tasty. The pizza is Neapolitan style pizza and it was very good and tasty. We also tried the creamy crab linguine and it was delicious. Service was very good and owner very friendly. Will definitely be back to try other items on the menu. No reservations taken unless you have parties of 6 or more. Enjoy!

    I love this place! It's easily the best Italian food and pizza in the area. The pasta is cooked to perfection--true al dente--and every flavor hits just right. The wood-fired pizzas are outstanding. No need to travel to the city for great pizza when you've got this gem nearby. The service is fast, and the staff is always friendly. The atmosphere feels warm and cozy, like stepping into a welcoming home. Definitely check it out! And shoutout to my guy Nick S--making some of the best pizzas you'll ever have.

    Short Rib Bolognese

    Ash & Oak is making me miss Nicoletta's a little less... the menus are remarkably similar as are the service and ambiance. Yes, I am endorsing the restaurant - you should patronize it as soon as possible! Four of us went there last Friday night (March 14, 2025) and all in our party were very pleased with the food and service. I am assuming the Italian foods are homemade, but either way, it all tasted delicious - served hot. Thankfully, the menu is not overwhelming: you can select from 9 appetizers, 6 dinners, and a nice selection of wood-fired pizza. We shared arancini and the gnocchi trio. For dinner we had pork belly carbonara, crab & linguine, and short rib Bolognese. Mouth-watering, delicious, and fresh! We also ordered a Main St. Margherita pizza, well... just because we wanted to try their pizza. I am not usually a big fan of wood-fired pizza, but I was pleased with it and want to try the other varieties. The dinners are on the smaller side so I was glad we got appetizers. We did not try any of the desserts or coffee, so I can't comment on them. The seating area is small but not cramped. You may have to wait for a table depending on what time you get there. They make reservations only for parties of 6 or more. It was not loud, but wow, it was busy. I was glad to see many customers coming in for pickup/takeout while we were there. Being able to see the pizza oven and kitchen is a plus - I find it entertaining and don't mind the additional "noise" of a business running at max capacity. Shannon, our server, is a holdover from Nicoletta's that I recognized and her service and attitude have not suffered under new ownership. Deeply knowledgeable, attentive, and polite. Thank you, Ash & Oak, for a memorable evening and some great eats! I am always rooting for a Williamstown business that is so close to home. I will be back to see what else you have to offer me and I would recommend to everyone to go there and have a nice dinner (or just get a pizza to go lol)!

    Short rib pasta

    Tasty food, friendly service, and great prices and the atmosphere was quaint--can't ask for more!

    Jersey devil pizza minus the jalapeños
    Alissa S.

    Quaint little spot. Jersey devil pizza- delish. Jerk chicken wings- fantastic. Short rib pasta- yum (but I think that is no longer on the menu) byob spot always a plus.

    Wood fired pizza oven

    Update. We sat outside (enclosed area) on a cool night and it was comfortable with the heat lamps. Many people were sitting outside (unenclosed area) as well. Tried the meatballs which were very good. The apple skillet was yummy. I appreciated that the topping was more oatmeal and less butter and sugar. The affogato was very good too. Will try some pasta next time!

    Peach Pizza
    Laurie S.

    Whoever thought to put peaches on a pizza? It was very good, but a little too much crust for me. The wings were awesome..just the right amount of sauce. The only suggestion I have is timing. My boyfriend was practically finished his meal before my pizza was ready..but like I said, it was very good.

    Fig Ricotta
    Nicolette T.

    My husband and I tried out Ash and Oak last night for our date night! The food was delicious. The pasta tasted homemade and the sauce was just like my great grandmom makes yum! The menu is small but everything on it sounds amazing. It is BYOB and we brought a bottle of wine with us. The crab arancini balls were so good!! We got a fig ricotta special and it was so good and came out almost like a pizza which I've never had before. All the flavors went so well together and now I want to try some of their pizzas. For dinner my husband had the pork belly carbonara and I had the Bolognese and they were mouth watering and really yummy! The dinner portions are on the small side so we were glad we got appetizers. It is very small there so you will probably have a wait. We sat outside because it was a beautiful night so we had no wait but the chairs outside are very uncomfortable which is the only reason they lost a star. Our waitress was great! We will definitely be back to try more on the menu! We really want to try the wings and pizza.

There was no understanding that my wife, son, and I would be sat at a table with a family that took up two tables, making the comments from the family very uncomfortable, as they talked about us behind our backs. I received a call from the restaurant confirming there were three in my party prior to Easter, and was never told we would be sitting with strangers. When we were first seated, the family opposed, my son and wife do not fare well when having to sit with strangers causing anxiety and a family dinner that was more moody and argumentitive than enjoyable. I would have normally given the restaurant a 5 star review, but to create a chaotic situation without notice is unforgivable. I cannot say enough nice things about the wait staff though.

I looked at the pictures online and loved the outdoor ambiance with the string lights and expected the food to provide that same level of excitement as they claim to be authentic Italian cuisine. Since this was a private event the appetizers and desserts were family style while your main dish was your own entree. The bruschetta was great! The right amount of tomato and olive oil without making the bread soggy which is a hard feat on its own. The calamari was made from frozen to my dismay, you can tell by the breading and the fact that there were no tentacles. I opted for the bolognese pappardelle. I was expecting thick wide and long noodles but they were thin and overcooked so almost mushy. Additionally the sauce had no flavor, it honestly tasted similar to chef boyardee that I had when I was a kid. My husband got the salmon and it was perfectly cooked, moist, and the caper lemon sauce really enhanced the flavor. The servers also seemed a bit frazzled with such a large party but after a bit they found their rhythm. Overall, this restaurant really missed the mark on some dishes which is why I am only giving 2 stars.

We weren't greeted properly, and the atmosphere just felt uncomfortable. As a family of color, we didn't feel very welcomed. Our waitress wasn't rude, but she was very unprofessional. She brought drinks before even giving us menus and never mentioned the nightly specials. I only knew about them because I checked online beforehand. I had to ask for the specials menu myself, which was strange. The food took a long time to come out. We had to repeatedly ask for refills and extra bread just to hold us over. When the food finally arrived, it was disappointing and not very appealing. One dish was so bad we sent it back after one bite. Even then, the service didn't improve. We constantly had to flag the waitress down, and instead of being attentive, she was venting about her personal life and having random, unprofessional conversations. When the check came, we were still charged for the dish we sent back -- she only removed part of it. I also wasn't given the advertised special pricing and was told it didn't apply because I asked for a different container -- something that was never explained beforehand. We spent $100 on food we didn't enjoy, with poor service and an uncomfortable vibe. The bread was honestly the best part of the meal. Unfortunately, we won't be returning.
